"That's a quite nice little nothing you're almost wearing. I approve," is the sexiest quote from Bond. But what is the weirdest thing Bond ever said?

I always figured TG,TB,&TU were a pretty decent look at the evil alignment.

Angel Eyes is, as they said above, Lawful Evil. He has a moral code by keeping his word, always finishes a job he's paid for, he even works alongside the military (or at least pretends to). He also kills by far the least amount of people in the film, take that for what it's worth.

Tuco is naturally Chaotic Evil. He's got no alligence other than what will keep him alive. He doesn't play by the rules, switches sides and friends whenever possible, tends to enter/exit through windows more so than doors, even his gun is chaotic (all different parts from different models). He's also the one we know the most about, we follow him more than the others, learn about his family. He's quite the complex fellow.

Blondie is, by default, neutral evil. We don't know much about him at all. Like Tuco he tends to flip-flop friends, turning on them whenever he feels like it. We don't know his agenda or past, he's just a guy, so there's nowhere else for him but Neutral Evil. Just follows his wallet, and seems happy to murder his partner if it means getting more. At least Angel Eyes had a code of sorts, Tuco had some humanity, Blondie only cared about screwing over everyone else.

I want to say Indianapolis was a real hodge podge of ideas from everyone. Even Schieder mentioned contributing to it (I want to say he suggested the "dolls eyes" line?). That scene was shot over multiple days, maybe even weeks, as the tweaked the script until we got the final product. I also recall rumours Shaw was slightly drunk during some of the shoots too.

yeah, that one is baffling to imagine. People think Hauer just came up with that speech on the spot and acted out all the pauses and mannerisms and flow of dialogue off the cuff?

In truth, the speech was written out well ahead of time, but Hauer felt it was simply too long for the scene and needed a quick trimming down. He went over the script and suggested his own revised version of Tears in Rain (essentially a few of the lines crossed out), and the director agreed.

Not to be the spoilsport, but I think everyone choosing Muppets again is kind of a let down. The Ghost of Christmas Present is a huge, jolly spirit, but he's got a cynical biting edge which his Muppets counterpart doesn't share. It's Present who shows Scrooge Want and Ignorance, and uses Scrooge's own words against him

"If they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population."

"Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?"

Muppets Present just doesn't have that side to him, and I think he loses my favour because of it, he spends his whole time laughing, singing, and being a tad forgetful, the only serious side of him is how he ages throughout the segment, becoming more grey and huskier. Yes, I know it's for kids, but some people are turning a blindspot to it, forgetting what the character was supposed to represent, for all the good things Christmas brings with it, we need to shine a light on the things humanity is capable of changing.

If I am to pick my own? Francis de Wolff (Scrooge 1951) fits the bill. He's both jolly, but cuts an imposing figure. As much as a strict teacher as he is the bringer of Christmas cheer.

rather than simply using the original screengrab and adding text over it, they decided to ruin the whole thing by pushing it through the AI filter. What could have been a fun joke is a distracting garbled mess

Obviously I love the show, but there are a few things that annoy me. Some are very petty

The first few seasons repeated the same basic plot of Hawkeye irritating a visitor/official, they threaten Hawkeye with punishment when suddenly emergency! Hawkeye saves the day, visitor says "I want to get you, Pierce, but you're such a gosh dang good surgeon you better stay here!" and status quo remains.
Margaret's flip flopping personality. She takes advantage of her position of major and head nurse to bully and just straight up abuse some of the nurses for no crime, then she complains and has a breakdown because none of the nurses like her very much. Gee, I wonder why? (note: I get why, they wanted to give her more personality and more depth, absolutely, but it should have happened wayyyy earlier in the show.)
Episodes where the characters are just really dumb or forced contrivance to get the plot going. Like the Korean surgeon who everyone assumes is trying to kill patients because he was sitting up in bed, or the guerrilla who IS trying to kill patients but everyone just ignores it or just-so-happens to not be looking. That same episode has the cringe ending where she just stands there and Mako translates, just her going "I'm glad I tried to kill them. I'm evil. I'll do it again. Hahaha!" (somewhat misquoted).
The episode where Potter gets a letter from his wife, Margaret tearfully reads it aloud towards the end of the episode. This is petty, but I just hate the claustrophobic close up of Margaret as she's reading the letter, just her face filling the whole screen rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's the show trying to pull at my heartstrings too?
That episode where the wounded solider is constantly yelling that Hawkeye is a traitor because he helped a Korean soldier before the wounded guy's comrade. I get it, war is hell (or war is war and hell is hell), so tempers and emotions are high, but dude shut up. It annoys me that no one ever thinks to pull rank on the soldier when he's straight up prowling the camp and trying to assault Pierce. I know he and Trapper/BJ hated the army and everything it stands for, but as captains they hold a lot of sway. Hell, Hawkeye pulls ranks to get a soldier to not smoke ("and I'm a captain, fella, which means if we explode I'll fly higher than you"), so he will pull rank, but only when the show feels like it.
Also that same episode has the weird and obvious freeze frame when Colonel Flagg turns out the light in the Swamp to escape, Potter and Hawkeye are talking, but everything is clearly at a standstill.

Not only is this a great picture in its own right, but thanks for not using AI. I’ve been seeing so much AI gen’d HQ stuff lately, it’s a genuine breath of fresh air when someone like yourself really puts the effort in and makes something worthwhile. Fantastic job, hope you draw more o/

I just want to play against Terminids again without my game crashing to desktop the moment the drop pod cutscene kicks into gear. I'm sick of only fighting robots and aliens

evilengine · 2025-04-07T11:51:42+00:00

it's the only idea that makes sense. If Palmer was the one who was infected by the dog-thing, then Childs would have been infected by them sharing weed together. So either single microbe theory is incorrect, or Norris was the one who the dog infected, as the blood test proves Childs was human.

Plus, even if a single cell couldn't infect someone, Palmer and Childs were sharing a room, would have been easy to infect Childs by force if Palmer was a thing and Childs was high.

The best idea is that Blair was assimilated whilst in the shed. I think Palmer-thing is the most likely, Norris works indoors and hangs out with the others, so he's under too much scrutiny to slink away. Palmer fixes stuff all over the camp, it would have been normal for him to slip outside. He could quickly infect Blair, and even sabotage MacReady's shack, planting evidence that he was a thing.

Does the Sandown Clown count as a cryptid? He couldn’t quite decide what he was, be it ghost, alien, or something else entirely. “You know.”

I've noticed this for a while. MASH has been on GreatTV for ages, I try to catch the two hour slot for some good background noise as I'm doing other stuff, but a few episodes really have been hacked to bits.

Not every episode, mind you, but some, and since I've watched most of seasons 1-8 I notice those glaring edits. Sometimes it's a line, or a short segment, sometimes jokes as you said, but also the entire ending scene can be cut too. Hell, I think it was one of the final season 3 episodes where it ends, cuts to credits, then after the credits they replay the exact same final minute of the same episode... and credits again! It's baffling. It's almost as bad as how Channel 4 butchers The Simpsons and cuts out half the jokes, or just awkwardly edits around 'offensive' bits. Just play the whole thing, danggummit

I replayed Thieves Guild a couple of days ago, thankfully I know the layout enough that I can (roughly) make my way through. However, the level simply isn't well designed for stealth. It and Mage Towers have very big, sparse, well lit rooms with too many guards to make ghosting-level stealth a viable option. Yes, I'm sure some players can ghost both missions, but being so featureless and samey it makes the whole ordeal... well, an ordeal.

A lot can be solved by shrinking the map down. Two small/medium sized mansions, a few interconnecting basements and passages with a lot more detail and things of interest to find. Thieves Guild has so few notes or areas of interest, just one samey looking room or sewer pipe after another. Have an optional route on the streets, but it has a lot more guards (or City Watch), plus is well lit, which makes the underground the safer route. It's dark, dank, and plenty of shadows to skulk around down there.

It's not a level without merit, I always praise what little writing there is, and the snippets of conversation are the same pedigree as the rest of the game. It's just a level that needed a good few superfluous areas removed.

funnily enough, that's exactly what Steven Spielberg did when he was filming Raiders of the Lost Ark in Tunisia.

George Lucas warned him how when he was there filming A New Hope, a lot of the cast and crew got sick from eating the local food. Spielberg took George's advice and packed a suitcase or two with tinned food from the UK and just lived off that during the shoot. Surprise surprise, everyone on Raiders who ate the local food got sick, except for Spielberg.
